Wednesday 2^nd August was a lovely day in London. You could say it was a Wonderful Day, a special day. All day Shri Mataji had been Chatting, Laughing,making jokes. She Said it was a very auspicious day. Some biscuits have been specially made for Her and sent in on the tea tray. “Ah”, She Says “These biscuits are so good, who made them, I must get the recipe”…A thrilled and delighted Patty is ushered in for a chat. And a cup of Darjeeling tea is offered, made by Rachael. “Aah” Mother Says, “This is the best cup of tea I have had for a long time”…..

Dearest Brothers & Sisters
Our Holy Mother Shri Mataji arrived safely on Sunday evening into the UK. The plane landed at about 7.50 pm. It was a shame that we couldn’t all be there but with baggage hold-ups etc. within the airport it wasn’t until 9.50 p.m. that Her car finally pulled away from Terminal One. Mother arrived at Her house safely and was offered three beautiful and fragrant garlands prepared by our sisters followed by Aarti & Prasad. She and Sir C. P. both seemed very well and in good spirits after their long day travelling.

Shri Mataji was very attentive to everyone and seemed genuinely pleased to be here in the UK whilst being gently received by those present. David formally thanked Mother and welcomed Her and Sir C. P. back to the UK. Mother responded with a smile and said: “But not for very long!” (She leaves for the U.S.A. in a few days). Shri Mataji watched as flowers and small gifts were offered to celebrate Her Divine presence and smiled and gestured to everyone expressing tremendous contentment. The moment drew to a close with the opening lines to a very British Bhajan “And Did those feet in ancient times walk upon England’s Mountain Green” ..sung in gratitude and praise that again Mother was blessing Albion with Divine Grace.

Mother spoke with several people and after everyone withdrew from Her room said how Joy Giving Her reception had been. It seemed very clear that Her health continues to improve and that hopefully She will enjoy a good rest whilst here in the UK prior to Her onward travels to America.

With love and respect
Jai Shri Mataji

And so we begin the joyful task of building the camp at historic Henley-on-Thames in preparation for the visit of over 1500 Sahaja Yogis to the shores of the UK. The countryside is lush, green and in full flower as the glory of summer at last comes to Albion this year. The sky is a beautiful blue, the sun hot and we are in heaven. Literally.

Visit the online diary and view photographs from the event.

We have posted a selection of impressions of the Sahasrara Day Puja celebrations written by Yogis from around the UK. You can find them on the Sahasrara Puja page here. Please feel free to add your own recollections and comments as you think of them. Jai Shri Mataji.

The Puja started at around 22.20 in the main pendal at the Puja Camp in Chalfont. Shri Mataji arrived to be met by the sound of pipes wafting gently on the evening breeze. The puja itself lasted around one and a half hours and was amazing as you can imagine. It was broadcast live and ended at 23.53. We are currently sitting eating Prasad in the heart of the universe, so please forgive us if we cannot write a more complete account right now. A full report will follow soon with photos. Jai Shri Mataji.
